The Government of Canada has been a client since 2012. The most recent project, starting implementation in late 2020, involves consolidating the pre-hire testing processes of 118 locations in eight ‘Service Centers’ across six (6) continents in one transparent account. The next expansion phase includes mapping our 65,000+ Assessment Library to the Government of Canada’s behavioral and technical competencies for competency-specific candidate pool assessment centers.
The World Health Organization uses the eSkill Talent Assessment PlatformTM to assess positions agency-wide. They use some pre-prepared skills assessments, but most testing is done on-site. Candidates are given a scenario and set of problems, and they have two hours to think of a plan and write a document that offers a solution. Scenarios are real-life job situations that have either already been addressed or have to be addressed. This document is then evaluated and scored by an interview team using predetermined criteria.
The City of Philadelphia has been using skills testing for two years to assess candidates who apply for non-managerial positions, including general clerical and administrative positions. Most positions are in the Health and Human Services, Public Works, and Public Safety areas, and ensure candidates have the required skills to do the job. The tests are used to test knowledge as well as job concepts.
The State of Colorado uses skills testing in 11 agencies and four educational institutions statewide, including the Department of Personnel & Administration, Department of Revenue, and Colorado State University. They assess candidates who apply for non-managerial positions using assessments such as Administrative Assistant, Reading Comprehension, and Attention to Detail, as well as the Excel Simulation to test candidates’ skills and knowledge of job concepts.
